They also have several booths for guests to browse and select items to purchase. Among the booths are Crafts, Baked Goods, “Old is New” (which are gently used items that may be just what you are looking for to use in your own home), Seasonal decorations, Silent Auction, and a Quilt Raffle. Preparations for this event begin in early spring.If you would like to work at one of the booths or donate an items for any of the booths, contact any Altar Society officer.
